8. 1 Sa‘īdan. A plain field. Jurz. Completely level. In which there is no tree, etc., meaning a time will come when this world, along with all its splendors, will perish and the surface of the earth will become like a barren and level plain. After that, We will reward the righteous and the wicked according to their deeds.
